Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds sweet Italian sausage links about 5 links
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 medium sweet yellow onion sliced
- 1 medium red onion sliced
- 1 large green bell pepper sliced
- 1 large red bell pepper sliced
- 3 cloves garlic pressed
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup chicken broth or dry white wine
Instructions
- Heat skillet over medium high heat. Brown the sausage links on all sides, then remove them from the skillet, slice into 1/2" inch slices and set aside. Sausage will not be completely cooked through yet.
- Add sliced onions and bell peppers to the skillet. Cook, stirring frequently for 3-5 minutes or until they start to soften. Stir in the garlic, oregano, basil and salt.
- Pour in the chicken broth or wine to deglaze the pan, scraping the bottom to loosen any bits as you stir.
- Stir the sausage links back into the onion mixture and reduce heat to a low simmer. Cook about 10 minutes. If it starts to get dry, add additional broth or wine to the skillet.
